Shackcast Episode 007: Let's Talk About Japan

Welcome to the new Shackcast, the official Shacknews podcast of Shacknews. This week on our seventh episode we discuss Tokyo Game Show 2017, Asif's recent trip to Japan, and fast food with your host Asif Khan, co-host David Craddock and special guest Lola the Pom. Tune in to hear more about TGS 2017 and our love of Slack emotes.

Asif Khan is the CEO and majority shareholder of Shacknews. He began his career in video game journalism as a freelancer in 2001 for Tendobox.com. Asif is a CPA and was formerly an investment adviser representative. After much success in his own personal investments, he retired from his day job in financial services and is currently focused on new private investments. His favorite PC game of all time is Duke Nukem 3D, and he is an unapologetic fan of most things Nintendo. Asif first frequented the Shack when it was sCary's Shugashack to find all things Quake. When he is not immersed in investments or gaming he is a purveyor of fine electronic music. Asif also has an irrational love of Cleveland sports.

From The Chatty

Some constructive criticism: you should edit this down and use an audio compressor. I can barely hear David in my car and the whole thing is very quiet. 2 hours long is a huge barrier to uptake outside the most hardcore shackers who don't already have a dozen+ hours of podcasts in their normal weekly queue. The entire first 7:07 could be cut to start. You might do better have a specific format with time-boxed segments to keep things in order.
